I'm at war with Malicious Software, I need some good reliable tools that will kill it and remove it NOW!?
I'm no stranger to malicious BS that comes with surfing games and general web material, but I got one helluva doozy now, and it's really pissin' me off! I can't get my Windows Defender to activate, and I am getting the occasional hijacker on my google home page. I found 7 trojans but I have no good apps to kill the bastards. I have spybot, and I have defender. So far, the offenders have been able to disable these tools. Anyone have some legitimate help to offer? I would appreciate it greatly!

Have you tried malwarebytes and run in safe mode. Also there anti rootkit software

Windows defender is a waste of processor time. So is Spybot lately. and if you run these together on the machine you have reduced your own security by u to 60 %. NEVER run more than one active anti-spyware/virus. And spybot blocks a lot of operations required by proper tools. So as soon as you get this cleaned up get yourself ONE good active anti-virus. Now start into safe mode with networking on a wired connection. Wireless will not do this. Download the free scanner from http://malwarebytes.org/ and run the full scan.

If your still able to use your laptop- download the free version of Superantispyware and do a full computer scan with it. Go to superantispyware.com - scroll down to the right hand corner of the page you will see a list - download.

Try AVG's service, you have a subscription to use it but its really reliable. It detects viruses as soon as they come up and lets you kill it if neccesary. You wont regret having to pay for it as you wont need anything else.
